Cryptography? Security? FROM A GENAI COMPANY?!

I didn’t watch the whole video, but I’m assuming it’s about the neural network / reinforcement learning / deep learning kind of AI, which is not GenAI. AlphaFold and such. The more recent version incorporates a diffusion model as one of the steps, which is similar to what LLMs use, but it’s not the main driver.

Even if it was using LLM technology, it was trained on a data bank of proteins, not god damn Reddit.

OpenAI, Anthropic and the like have nothing to do with it. They are just wasteful.

I have no problem with AI in general, only with the GenAI parasites.

Do people grasp just how much energy GenAI guzzles?

If it were used for cancer research, maybe I’d be down with it.

But no, it’s used by some kids to make memes, create sloppy TikTok content, rewrite emails in posh English that are harder to read, create stereotypical game and movie scripts, reject perfectly qualified people by HR automated CV sorters, dumbs students, creates more fake news, and slightly helps programmers write code faster.

It’s appalling. If everyone saw it for what it is, a garbage generator, we’d all be in a better place. But that’s not the case, so here we fucking are.
